[quote=Anonymous]OP I agree with 10:51 - you sound like you have really managed to come out of a nightmare background with your head on straight. I have a fair amount of disfunction in my family and it can be extremely difficult to build boundaries and stick to them to protect myself. You have every right not to spend any time with your cousin if you don't want to. You have every right to only visit, in controlled circumstances, the family you want to see. I would not give your grandmother a lot of notice so she doesn't have time to set anything up. Then I would say (if she says "oh I'll call so and so...") No thank you Grandma, I really just want to spend time with you. And then - Really, no Grandma. I'm not coming to see him, I'm coming to see you. I only have a little time and I want to spend it with you. And then - I said no Grandma. If you don't want to see me I understand but I won't stay if So and So is there... Good luck. And good for you![/quote]
